[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Finland’s “housing first” approach to homelessness seems supportive. They are providing housing and services for all who are homeless. It is cheaper than criminalizing homelessness or providing “safe sleeping sites” aka parking lots like we have done. It is a policy choice. Too logical and compassionate to be taken seriously in the US, I fear.[/quote]

Finland does not compare to the US.   Despite the Sami, they are homogeneous.  [/quote]

+1 Finland just doesn’t have the violent crime rates that comes with a diverse population like the US has.[/quote]

Uh, I don't think it's our "diverse population" that causes our violent crime rates. Lots of very diverse countries have much lower violent crime. I wonder what it could be? What's the one thing the US is obsessed with that most other countries either heavily regulate or ban altogether? Anything?[/quote]

Which country has more diverse population than the US?  [/quote]

Could you please explain how having a more diverse population causes higher rates of violent crime? Thanks.[/quote]

I thought diversity was our strength ? [/quote]
